The butt-padding underwear trend: False advertising or a useful white lie?

Ever seen a bustle from the late eighteen hundreds? Essentially, women used to wear this great big steel confection that looked like half a birdcage under their clothes- and it made the back end of their skirts literally stick out like a small shelf. People put rose wreaths on their super enhanced behinds! These- these are nothing.

Meh. I'd never wear something like this. I've got a fairly flat butt for having wider hips (35-25-35 BWH), but my guy likes the body that I have--and more importantly, he likes the fact that the advertising matched the product. I don't dye my hair, use makeup, tan, or pad anything. My beauty supplies consist of soap, shampoo, and deodorant. However, I acknowledge that other women may wish to do these things, and it's their choice. My guy won't be looking at them, though--but it's fine with me ;)

Sounds like something good to me. Why not? Women wear makeup, wigs, color their hair, braces, partials, pantyhose etc. Nothing wrong with beautifying yourself is my thought.

i want something to dehance my ass!!!!

Hi everynoe. I have bought these and I think they are best panties ever. They make your bum look really good in jeans, skirts and extremly good in leggings and jazz-trousers. I wear them every day. It makes me happy, because earlier I had no bum at all. I just love them.

This is just like falseies in the twenties. Every woman wanted to be like Marilyn Monroe (who had large breasts) and bought these fake breasts to stick into their bras. And for the completely ass-less (like myself) they can buy these to make themselves a little more balanced.

Tiggy: Marilyn Monroe is from the 50's and 60's not the 20's and she did not have big breast. Jane Mansfield had the big ones.

The butt pad!! Ladies put yourself in a mans position, if he were wearing something to make his package/penis look bigger you would get mad, huh? Its hard to find pants that will go over your butt when its big/nice. I know because I have a NICE/BIG ASS. Yup people come up to me and tell me that I have a great ass all the time. And I am not fat, just right. But go for it GIRLS and have fun with it!!

Go for it! I'm a sista with a perfect peach that makes other black gals envy. Thanks Mom! Upon creation, I spent so much time in the "behind line", I only got what was left over in the "bust line". LOL! So go for it ladies. And when you're buying your padded panties...look over to the padded push-up bra area and give me a wave. ;)

I don't understand the confusion. Women have been wearing padded push up bras for years. Don't you think guys notice the drop of a cup size when the bra comes off? It's the same idea. After saying that, though, I will admit that I would not wear butt padded underwear, but I do wear push up bras. And you can get a better butt with just a little work out. You can't get bigger boobs from a work out. So maybe it's a little different, but the basic idea is the same.

One of the trainers at my gyn wears one or something similar to it (an enhancment). All of the guys cant stop starring at her.

Okay, for those of you who say you can get the exactly same results working out. BULLS**T! If you have no butt, no amount of exercise will change that: it can get toned and not jiggle so much but it's NOT going to make it bigger regardless of how many squats and lunges you do! And eating healthier? That's just common sense...not just for those of us who are derier challenged. I would use these in a heart beat! My butt is nearly non-existant (and keep in mind, I walk three miles a day on average) and even when I was playing competitive sports, my butt just stayed as flat as always. Genetics play a huge role in these things and unfortunately some of us are just not lucky in that area of the gene pool. It's safer, easier and cheaper than getting butt implants so why not? Most of you girls that are saying this is ludicrous use padded and push-up bras yet are so quick to judge the padded underwear! Grow up, some of us are just sick of walking around with saggy jean butts!

If a woamn feels using it, then she should use it. Why would we deprive her of her happiness, anyway? =)

oh yeah, how sexy would that be for your man to find

I picked up a scarf,dropped by a foxie looking female,,and followed her to a hotel,,she went in to a room,and I peeked over the transom,,ahe took off a wig,,false teeth, false boobs, and a glass eye, descovered me,,and ask 'what do yopu want'?,,I said you know what I want, when you GET to it, just toss it out in the hall

imagine how you would feel if you found out that a guy stuffed his briefs, because thats exactly how guys would feel when they find out you stuff your panties. you will be laughed at! at least if you let them find out you have a flat ass they're not gonna ridicule you because they'll be too busy looking your ass. self confidence is what makes women sexy.. the nice ass, boobs, legs, or whatever is just another thing that contributes to that exuberated confidence, it's not what makes the girl "hot". Now that being said you can't fake confidence, you will probably just attract the creepy ass dudes that can sense your low self esteem and think it will make it that much easier for them.

A girl I used to work with had some butt enhancing underwear, but instead of foam, they had silicon inserts (she showed us once, it's a long story). Anyway she would wear such tight pants that you could totally see the outline of them on her butt! It was hilarious =0)

ROFLMAO I remember a date being quite surprised when I took off my padded bra this was waaay back in the day..Now I get teased about not having a butt my family tells me I have "half a scoop" I was born in New York but now live in the South were the size of your butt is almost a national treasue..Needless to say I was built backwards..now if I could put my chest where my butt is suppose to be......

now a days people loves fake stuff ... if this can help d gals to be more confident then i would say go for it ...

as long as we are comfortable ... WHY NOT??

While I am not going to need any padded panties, I don't see the issue if a woman wants a pair to fill out an outfit and feel pretty. We put on makeup, we do our hair, we wear padded, pushup, or water bras to enhance our bewbage, what's the difference? And I fail to see how it would be awkward once a guy finds out that you are wearing padded panties. By then, he's just so excited to see you out of them that he doesn't care if they have butt padding. Honestly, one would be amazed at how easy-going most guys are about such things.
